Local History 

The Museum has a large collection of local history material, photographs and archive, which can be viewed by appointment and is always interested in objects of local interest, photographs or papers relating to the borough and its inhabitants.

Museum Shop 

The Museum shop has many items of historical interest and publications on history and the local area. 

Group visits

Arrangements can be made for groups to visit outside normal opening hours and have a conducted tour with one of the volunteers.  This applies to both young people’s groups such as Boy Scouts, youth clubs or guides and adult groups. 

Talks and Visits

Volunteers can visit clubs or groups giving illustrated talks on several local history subjects. 

Enquiries

If you have an Enquiry and think the Museum can help, e-mail info@spelthornemuseum.org.uk but please remember we are all volunteers so it may take some time to investigate.

Education 

The Education Team run teaching sessions on both Romans and Victorians where volunteers in costume take children through a typical day of the period. There are also  Victorian & Roman Loan Boxes available for schools to borrow and an accompanying Teachers Pack. 'Time Traveller' books aimed at showing children how children lived during these times are also available.
